This is a question Unusual talents

B3tans! Can you hum with your tongue? (Your Ginger Fuhrer can and he once demonstrated this to a producer on Blockbusters on the hope of getting on TV) Maybe you can bend your thumb in a really horrid way that makes it look broken. (Your Ginger Fuhrer's other special talent) What can you do? Extra points if you fancy demonstrating this with the odd pic or youtube vid.

I have a natural ability
to pick out plot-holes in films. This is why I haven't been to the picture house in years and rarely watch a film/DVD on TV that isn't extremely Sci-Fi or fantasy. Not because I wouldn't enjoy it, but because me saying "oh for fuck's sake, that simply wouldn't happen" tends to grate on my family after the third time.

I don't know how I managed to make it to the end of Armageddon.

this is less a natural ability
and more an IQ in excess of 6.

wit respect to Armageddon
I think an IQ of 6 is being generous.

Watch Primer!
And you're not allowed to poke fun at any plot holes until you've figured it out in its entirety.

I can relate to this
My enjoyment of going to the cinema has reduced to zero (however that may also be due to the ignorant bastards we always appear to attract to sit behind us and talk/text all the way through).

I find the recent spate of alleged 'horror' or 'thriller' films especially boring. If forced to watch this dross, i've begun testing my own ability to identify the 'jump-out-of-your-skin' bit, by counting down "3-2-1" to the baddie jumping out of the wardrobe, or whatever. If i get it wrong, i get the next round.

At home, i sometimes intentionally get it wrong just to leave the room for a bit and watch the kettle boil - whilst it apparently 'never does', i find this more entertaining than Saw IV, for example.

This is why
I am not permitted to be in the same room when the missus is watching CSI.

I do the same thing.
I'm fairly certain my husband planned my murder while we were watching The Day After Tomorrow. I didn't say anything out loud, but I'm afraid the snorts and giggles gave me away. That and for days after I'd dramatically grab people round the shoulders and yell, "Everybody run faster! The cold's catching up!" and then giggle like a 12 year old hearing her first dirty joke.
